Pink Boot Society's Summer Showdown coming to Lookout Farm in Natick

Thursday

NATICK – Instead of “Over the Top,” it will be “Over the Hop” at Lookout Farm in July.

The Pink Boots Society’s Boston Chapter will host its PBS Boston Arm Wrestling Summer Showdown at Lookout Farm on Pleasant Street on July 29 from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.

That day, 20 women from the New England brewing industry will take part in an arm wrestling competition, unleashing their alter egos with names like Lager Child from Notch Brewing and the Lady of Justice from Exhibit ‘A’ Brewing.

The event raises money for the Pink Boot Society, which provides educational scholarships to women in the beer industry, while promoting equality.

Past participant Andrea Stanley (aka the Grain Reaper) from Valley Malt in Hadley will be the MC.

General admission tickets are $15 and brewery/industry packages are $100 for 10 tickets. Click here for tickets.

I attended the winter showdown, and I can tell you this was one of my favorite beer events of 2017. It’s definitely worth attending.
